Well Jabber, ya cursed me twice. Now I have a song stuck in my head to accompany my sinus headache. Rained all day here. It's only 60 degrees. The highlight of my day was yanking up a garlic bulb that's the size of an onion. I may have to find a site to post a pic. (cracking open a beer in honor of the Starland Vocal Band) - purpleartichokes, 2007-07-04: 17:33:00

Way to go purple - happy 4th of July - Jabberwocky, 2007-07-04: 19:22:00
